It’s always a great thing when epiphany strikes in the thesis journey. Realizing that someone you talked to, something you read, or something you discovered will affect everything after it is a beautiful thing. It feels similar to understanding how black holes work.

I’m doing my design thesis on Mars. Not how we’ll get there, but how we will live out our days once we make the journey. How will people, and therefore their material culture, adapt to the new extreme conditions of daily life?
